Add ARY News on Google AAResize Just two days after wrapping up his 11-year run on CBS, Stephen Colbert made a surprise television appearance on a local public access show in Michigan.

Following his highly watched farewell from The Late Show, which drew 6.74 million viewers on Thursday, Colbert guest-hosted Only in Monroe on Friday night. He previously visited the same Michigan program in July 2015, right before taking over his late-night network slot.

During his CBS finale, Colbert actually hinted at the surprise return. He joked that, since the 2015 public-access episode was technically his first show, returning to local television was probably where fans would see him next.
